Rival Gates Written Application

Team Alias: Deep Dwellers                     Rank: Scribe

Guild Affiliation: [Roaring Icebergs]         Date Joined: 8/28/15

Funds: 10 Meobans

Collected Stamps: N/A

====================

Member 1: Method, Kabutops

Gender: M        Age: 22

Nature: Serious   Characteristic: Highly persistent

Ability: Battle Armor
“Battle Armor prevents the opponent from landing a critical hit.”

Move 1: Knock Off
“With his scythe flat Method hits his opponent. Usually the blunt hit tends to loosen the grip of any opposing Pokémon or gives Method enough time to disarm his opponent.”
Type : Dark          Category: Physical
Power :  65          Accuracy: 100%

Move 2: Endure
“Although Method can use this skill to brace for a heavy oncoming attack he usually uses it during the duration of any conflict. Bracing himself to take hits so that he can get an opening. Of course one the more common uses for this skill is to protect Mogok from large cave-ins when digging…”
Type : Normal     Category: Status
Power : --              Accuracy: --

Move 3: Slash
“Method’s standard attack. Using his defensive stance to lure his opponents in Method brings his scythe up to slash. However depending on his attacker how he both positions his stance and how he slashes his opponent can vary.”
Type : Normal    Category: Physical
Power : 70           Accuracy: 100%

Move 4: Mega Drain
“After fighting Method for a while opponents usually lure themselves into a false sense of security. That’s when Method grapples his opponent, slashing their back and using his natural abilities Method absorbs the life force of the opponent. In cases where the opponent leaves enough of an opening Method will slide behind his opponent and grapple them from behind. This leaves them INCREDIBLY OPEN.”
Type :  Grass       Category: Special
Power : 40           Accuracy: 100%

Uniform Accessory: Dyed feather

Item 1: N/A

Item 2: N/A

Item 3: N/A

Description: Method is what some would call the bulk or muscle of Deep Dwellers. Although unlike other muscle he isn’t dense or lacking in the mental department. Method is more of a quiet loner who only seems to communicate with his partner Mogok. The few things that make Method stand out are his ragged cloak, whatever color used to cover this thick garment has now all but faded. And his thick Shell. Making him seem a bit more durable than most. He seems to be the kind of guy you can’t get a read on. At least at first glance.

----------------------------------------

Member 2: Mogok, Dwebble

Gender: M       Age: 34

Nature: Naughty   Characteristic: Somewhat of a clown

Ability: Shell Armor
“Shell Armor prevents Pokémon from receiving a critical hit.”

Move 1: Feint Attack
“Most of Mogok’s moves shine with the company of his teammate. When the Kabutops is keeping his opponent busy Mogok likes to hide in the shadows of his cloak striking from the darkness.”
Type :  Dark          Category: Physical
Power : 60             Accuracy: --%

Move 2: Stealth Rock
“A move Mogok commonly used when fleeing. But again! Be wary of Team Deep Dwellers! Rocks rising from the ground to attack an opponent already locked in combat? Scary!  
Type :  Rock         Category: Status
Power : --%            Accuracy: --%

Move 3: Bug Bite
“Let’s say hypothetically you’re grappled by a Kabutops. From the front. Would really be unfortunate if like this little bug guy came out of the cloak and bit you like everywhere. While you couldn’t move…”
Type : Bug             Category: Physical
Power : 60            Accuracy: 100%

Move 4: Rock Wrecker
“It’s safe to say that a rock being shot at you at high velocity would hurt. However you could see it coming right? You could jump out of the way or dodge it. BUT LET’S SAY A KABUTOPS HAS YOU GRAPPLED FROM BEHIND. YOUR STOMACH. COMPLETELY OPEN. THAT WOULD BE A BAD DAY.”
Type : Rock           Category: Physical
Power : 150           Accuracy: 90%

Uniform Accessory: Plain tie

Item 1: N/A

Item 2: N/A

Item 3: N/A

Description: Peculiar is an accurate word to describe Mogok. Self-proclaimed treasure hunter. Self-proclaimed tactician… He’ll always remind you how long he’s been around. If there’s a rock type he’s heard of it. If there’s a chasm he’ll at least CLAIMED to have explored it. With Mogok keeping in mind the “Self-Proclaimed” is your best bet. Of course he’s friendly enough, if you’re on his good side. You Might not want to underestimate him and his partner. They make for a surprisingly good team.

“Gather around kids! Today is the day you get to hear a REAL tale of heroism!”

Mogok scurries up onto the boulder. He seems excited to tell the story. And with a deeper voice then some would expect from the small Dwebble people start to take notice. Perhaps it’s the somber figure of the strange ‘mon in the cloak. Or maybe it is a little bit of both.

“So there I was! Doing what I’m always doing! Looking for 'The one…' Listen if I’m going to take myself to that next level you better believe I’m doing it in style!” The Dwebble pauses to make a pose. The onlookers don’t really give much of a reaction, The Dwebble ignores this and continues. “I’m not just going to be some chum in a huge block ‘o dirt, No When I take it to the next stage you better believe that I’m going to find some beautiful Gemstone to call my home… You feeling me on this, Method?”

Method glances up towards the Dwebble pausing for a moment before responding.

“Sure. Absolutely.”

“So there I was. And you can imagine it was daring right? We’re talking a chasm Hundreds of feet deep. This is the real treasure hunting folks. If you want to know why we’re the Deep Dwellers you better know well that it’s all of my rugged skill and talent! You feeling me on this Method?”

A slight smirk is followed by a response.

“When I think of you Mogok, All I think is skill and talent.”

“Anyways! So I’m digging. Hitting up on the rock when I find this spot. You hearing me?” The Dwebble taps on the boulder for emphasis. “Makes a different sound then the rest… kind of a hollow sound..? So I’m like. You are darn right I’m going to dig there. So I do, and the wall collapses. So at this point I’m in free fall. And I’m no Gligar but I keep it cool. Of course I didn’t freak out or anything… What you take me for a chum?”

The crowd remains silent. It’s hard to tell if they’re even listening at all. The Dwebble turns to his Kabutops companion.  

Method shakes his head from side to side.

“Of all the words to describe you, Chum would not be one of them… No.”

“So this is the part where I have to give my partner here some credit. I don’t exactly swim. You see. So although I was about to find a way out of this situation with my experience and amazing quick thinking this Kabuto, rises out of the water and helps me out of there. And that’s the day we met! Kept coming down to that cave for a few years and before you know. The little guy had grown up and wanted to leave the nest! And who else to take him! To see this wide world of ours! Than his old friend Mogok! You feeling me on this Method?”

The Kabutops grins.
